Author:Lemony Snicket
I read pages 50-60
Quote:"But Sunny(baby sister),instead of going into a classroom,had to work in the administrative building,and I must say that her situation was perhaps the worst in the entire triptych....Sunny can scarcely mve the typewritter's keys,and even when she could she did not know how to spell most of the words Nero(the evil vice princapil) dictated.She had never used a stapler before,so she sometimes stapled her fingers by mistake,wich hurt quite a bit.
Reactoin:"What a cruel man.Even for a man like Nero that is way to cruel.Making a baby do office work.I mean how would he feel if he was a baby and he had to work with a stapler. "

I read pages 60-70
Quote:"As the man who called himself Coach Ginghis looked back at them with his shiny,shinyeyes,the Baudelaire orphans wished more than anything that their legs could carry them far,far away from the man who was really Count Olaf. "
Reactoin:"Oh no Count Olaf is back.What a guy wont he give up.If I was the Baudelaire orphans I woulds call the police,because I would be very scared.I'm scared for them. "


I read pages 70-80
Quote:"Why?"Violet asked."Why?"Isadora repeated." "Because we're going to help you,that's why!You don't think we'd just sit here while you tried to escape from Olaf's clutches,would you." Duncan said
Reation:"That is so kind of the Quagmires to be helping the Baudelaires.I would want a friend like that if I was in a situation like them.

I read pages 80-90
Quote:"These things happened ofcourse,and there is no use pretending they didn't.But for now let us ignore the terrible sonata,the dreadful teatchers,the nasty,teasing students,and the even more wretched things that will be happening soon enough.Let us enjoy this breif moment of comfort,as the Baudelaires enjoyed it in the company of the Quagmire triplets and,in Sunny's case,an armrest.
Reaction:"It's nice that the Baudalaires are happy.After all they have been through.

I read pages 90-100
Quote:"Oh Coach Genghis,"he said,"we wouldn't ask you to violate your religious beliefs,and I certainly don't wan't your feet stinking up my office.

Reaction:Shoot they were so close.That Olaf is really sneaky.
